Some of the best viewing sites around are right in Renton’s Downtown!
Like the locals, salmon head to Renton’s Downtown in the fall. See the salmon migration in October and learn about the epic journey that takes place every year as salmon swim from the ocean, through Seattle’s Ballard Locks, into Lake Washington, and up the Cedar River through Renton to spawn.

Downtown’s plentiful parks include the Piazza (home of the seasonal farmers market), Tonkin (take a selfie with a donkey!), Veterans Memorial (honoring our military), and the beautiful areas along the Cedar River near Renton Library.
